"Wouldnâ t recommend this company to my worst enemy. Not sure where to beginâ ¦ our so called PM allowed his crew to dig a hole in our backyard and put the rebar in all while a hurricane was about to hit. We raised our concerns and the PM informed us that he doesnâ t pay attention to pending weather conditions. No concrete was poured prior to the storm hitting which wouldâ ve protected our investment, instead we watched as the walls caved in and the hole filled with water and mud which left the rebar with nothing behind it. This incompetence set the project back over a week and the workmanship was sloppy playing catch up. The employees spent a good portion of their day being unproductive and unprofessional. As you can see from one the attached pictures that one of their employees took time out of their day on our dime to play artist and draw a nice flower in the wet cement. Again, we addressed our concerns with the PM and was immediately accused of doing this ourselves. Midway through the project there were days when one their employeeâ s kids showed up unsupervised to work. The work site was kept a mess with property used as storage. Shortly after the paver deck was completed they had workers show up to clean up a pile of plywood and other lumber which was in the way of our fence being reinstalled. My wife was speaking with one of the workers and he began to argue about completely removing the trash from our property. At this point she broke away from the conversation so I decided shortly thereafter to review our security camera footage to witness the exchange at which point I overheard the gentleman call my wife a B**** as he walked away. There was no effort to smooth the concrete surface prior to applying the pebble tech surface which caused the finally product to turn out with a lump and wavy surface. There is an actually indentation on the sun shelf which was caused by one of their workers walking in wet concrete and again not going back to smooth out the surface. AGIAN, we raised concerns regarding the quality and was actually told that the uneven surface was INDUSTRY STANDARD, which came directly from their QC employee. Towards the end of the project being completed we discovered that their workers had been using our property as a urinal behind the shed. As you can see from the attached pictures the fence was stained yellow. I can keep going and going but Iâ m done investing any additional time with these people. One of the truly sad parts is that we were never offered an apology nor did any from their company take ownership for any of the mistakes. So in the end if you wanna hire a company that is completely unprofessional, unethical and incompetent then hire them. Iâ ll leave it at this quote directly from our PM, â we dug a hole in your backyard and filled it with water, what more do you wantâ ¦â"

Installing interlocking pavers takes between four and 10 days, depending on the project's size and complexity. The process involves careful excavation, precise leveling, and building a stable base before placing the pavers. Larger projects or challenging site conditions may require more time to ensure a durable and attractive result that stands the test of time.
It's not recommended to place pavers directly on dirt. For the best results, you'll need to lay a foundation of gravel or sand to create a leveled and compacted base. This ensures proper drainage below the pavers, preventing erosion and shifting over time. An uneven or unstable base can cause the pavers to move or settle improperly, affecting the appearance and longevity of your installation.
Installing interlocking pavers yourself involves rigorous preparation and careful execution. This DIY approach requires excavation, precise leveling, and building a proper base using gravel or sand to ensure stability. The project demands at least two to three full days of intensive manual work and the use of specialized tools. Alternatively, hire a paver installer for professional results.
Concrete stone and clay brick pavers are the top choices for homeowners. They offer robust performance and an attractive finish that elevates outdoor living areas. These materials are engineered for superior durability and design flexibility, ensuring long-term strength and style. Selecting the right paver type maximizes the overall appeal and functionality of your space while meeting all design and performance standards.
